Outline • Reciprocal Lattice • Crystal Vibration • Phonon • Reading: 1.3 in Tien et al • References: Ch3, Ch4 in Kittel
K’: wavevector of refracted X ray Reciprocal Lattice K: wavevector of Incident X ray Real lattice • The X-ray diffraction pattern of a crystal is a map of the reciprocal lattice. • It is a Fourier transform of the lattice in real space • It is a representation of the lattice in the K space Construction refraction occurs only when DKK’-K=ng1+mg2 Diffraction pattern or reciprocal lattice
